Dirty Tactic From McCain-Palin Party EXPOSED

In a recent article from Factcheck.org, there is a detailed analysis of a recent McCain ad which attacks Obama's integrity as a truthful president. Throughout the article they argue and disprove the merit of which McCain attacks Obama. One of the major claims of misrepresentation was the case of Infanticide.

"Infanticide"

The second Obama quote comes from an interview that he did with David Brody of the Christian Broadcasting Network, and it was not directed at either the McCain campaign or the National Journal. Obama was attempting to clarify his position on "born alive" legislation in Illinois. This is how that part of the conversation went:

David Brody, CBN News (Aug. 16): Real quick, the born alive infant protection act. I gotta tell you that's the one thing I get a lot of emails about and it's just not just from Evangelicals, it about Catholics, Protestants, main — they're trying to understand it because there was some literature put out by the National Right to Life Committee. And they're basically saying they felt like you misrepresented your position on that bill.

Obama: Let me clarify this right now.

Brody: Because it's getting a lot of play.

Obama: Well and because they have not been telling the truth. And I hate to say that people are lying, but here's a situation where folks are lying. I have said repeatedly that I would have been completely in, fully in support of the federal bill that everybody supported — which was to say — that you should provide assistance to any infant that was born — even if it was as a consequence of an induced abortion.

For the record, we wrote about the back and forth between the National Right to Life Committee and Obama, regarding his votes against "born alive" legislation during his time in the Illinois state Senate.

The thing that I find most interesting is the fact that when you go to the link for the press-release about the ad and then click on the so-call official youtube link for the political ad, you will notice that the video has been removed.
"This video is no longer available due to a copyright claim by The Christian Broadcasting Network, Inc."

Now why would Youtube remove an official ad from the McCain-Palin party? Did McCain-Palin not get permission from The Christian Broadcasting Network to use exclusive footage of Obama's interview or was the McCain-Palin caught red handed by CBN using their footage to misrepresent Obama? Not only does this hurts the McCain-Palin campaign but it shows that they're on a mission to win the presidency by any means necessary.

My Advice For The Candidates

With thirty days left till election day both candidates still have much work ahead of them. Both sides still have a few crowds to woo over. My advice for Obama and his campaign is simple. DONT F**K UP! It's that simple. As of today Obama is leading the polls and has many toss up states leaning his way.

Obama now has a solid lead in states that account for 189 electoral votes, and he is well positioned in states representing 71 more electoral votes, for a total of 260, according to a tally by The New York Times, based on polls and interviews with officials from both campaigns and outside analysts. It takes 270 electoral votes to win the presidency. McCain has solid leads in states with 160 electoral votes and is well positioned in states with another 40 electoral votes, according to The New York Times tally, for a total of 200. Just six states representing 78 electoral votes — Florida, Ohio, Virginia, New Hampshire, Nevada and Colorado — are tossups.

Obama appears to have significantly more options to reach the 270 threshold, particularly if McCain fails to win any states that Democrats won in 2004, like Pennsylvania, where the Republican ticket has been competing especially vigorously. -Chron.com

Many political journalist and columnist say that if the election were today Obama would win(by a small margin).However, since the elections are not today and there is thirty long days left till Nov. 4, Obama needs make damn sure he does not mess up. A small mistake on his part could be more detrimental to him than the McCain camp.However, with dubious attacks from the McCain party, Obama can just sit back, relax, and watch McCain and Palin make themselves look silly.


On the other side of the situation McCain seems to be loosing his cool. The number one thing I think McCain should do is stay calm. America already views this guy as an angry old man, no need to fuel it even more. One thing that we have seen Barack Obama do really well is keep his composure under pressure. Another aspect John McCain should do is establish himself with the middle class and mention what he would do to fix the economy. Sarah Palin isn't helping McCain win over the middle class right now, although she is winning over more viewers for SNL. In the next upcoming debate, McCain should state how he himself would help reestablish the middle class. Everyone's focus is on this terrible econmony. If McCain can somehow prove that he a better choice than obama in fixing the economy than he could have a chance. The final thing McCain needs to do in order to be a fighting condender in this race is to disassociate himself from the status-quo. Many people think that having McCain in office would be the Bush administration all over again. If John McCain can genuinely show undecided voters that he's a maverick and not a mimic then he has a shot at presidency.

Which VP Won The Depate??

After watching the debates its hard to really tell who won or if there was actually a winner. Many news outlets, such as FOX, CNN, or MSNBC, seemed to claim either Joe Bidden or Sarah Palin won. Both candidates seemed to have their moments. Joe Biden showed emotion when briefly speaking about his role as a single parent. Sarah Palin demonstrated how she would ease the polarization in Washington. Yet, at the end of the night both candidates seemed to have passed the test national debate test(Which is to look good on TV and impress undecided voters).

Sarah Palin's Facebook HACKED!

Check out this interesting screenshot of Sarah Palin's facebook page.

Now obvioulsy we know that this screenshot was forged, but none the less it is still interesting.

The Odd Couples

Among these points, I find it interesting that:

• Biden supported the Iraq War Resolution in 2002- and has since opposed it.
  
• Palin supports drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge-which many Republicans support, but McCain opposes. (what a maverick)
  

These two statements are kind of weird, considering the pairing of candidates

1. Biden originally supported the war (but to be fair he immediately opposed it), while Obama heavily criticized Hillary for voting for the war in the beginning.
2. Palin supports drilling in the ANWR. Strange, because it's located in her home state, Alaska. You'd think that a former governor would want to preserve her own national wildlife refuge. The strangest thing is that McCain straight-up opposed drilling, specifically in the ANWR, which was at odds with the Bush administration at the time, way before McCain chose Palin as his running mate.

It's one thing to be at odds with your political opponents, but another to be at odds with your own running mate.

Sarah Palin's Email Hacked!

According to an article on the Huffinton Post, Sarah Palin's email(gov.palin@yahoo.com) was hacked into sometime this week when hackers, associated with an cyber terrorist group called Anonymous, impersonated her and reset her Yahoo! Mail password. Although nothing malicious was found in her mailbox, family picture and personal email addresses were discovered through her account. All this after an alleged report of Palin using her personal email to conduct political and government business.


Being hacked can happen to almost anyone , but when your careless enough to use your own private email to conduct government business that is just reckless. Now imagine if she had access to information vital to the security of our nation.

Sarah Palin On ABC

In case you missed it( like I did) here's Sarah Palin being interviewed by Charles Gibson on ABC.

I think Sarah Palin did a good job....of stating her rehearsed answers during the interview. However, towards the end, when she was asked about the Bush Doctrine, she must've forgot what coach McCain told her.

Sarah Palin & The Bridge To Nowhere

Take a look at this ad from the McCain party titled The Original Mavericks.

Notice anything funny? If you guessed the title you are correct! John McCain and Sarah Palin aren't Mavericks, that title goes to Mark Cuban and the greatest basketball team that's located in Dallas, Texas. However, if you said something relating to Sarah Palin stopping the bridge to nowhere being completely false then you get some credit.

Sarah Palin did'nt stop the bridge to nowhere; Hell, she was the main person looking for funding for the $400 million project!

"We will continue to look for options for Ketchikan to allow better access to the island," the Republican governor[Sarah Palin] said. "The concentration is not going to be on a $400 million bridge."-CNN

Would this be considered an absolute lie or just an error of judgement on the republican's side?

Sarah Palin Confused?

For a second their she sounded like she could've been Obama's running mate.

Animal Lovers Say "No" To Palin

While browsing google images for naked pictures of Sarah Palin (don't judge me! ), I came across an interesting little article concerning her views on animals rights. Well obviously since shes an avid hunter and explicitly touts her fur coat everywhere one would only think that she luvs animals. Nonetheless, here our a few points to consider with Sarah Palin :

Sarah Palin:

* Proposed paying a $150 bounty for the left foreleg of each dead
wolf.

* Approved a $400,000 state-funded propaganda campaign to promote
aerial hunting.

* Introduced legislation to make it even easier to use aircraft to
hunt wolves and bears.

Oprah Says No To Palin

Billionaire talk show host/goddess, recently says she willl not allow Sarah Palin to make an apperance on her show. Oprah, a heavy Obama supporter, cliams that she doesn't want to use her show to platform any of the candiates. There is also talk that this issue has created a rift within Oprah's staff were half of Oprah's staff wants Palin to make an apperance while the other half doesn't.

McCain shows no love for the Middle-Class

Yesterday during the RNC, John McCain failed to mention any issue concerning middle class Americans.

"If you watched the Republican National Convention over the last three days, you wouldn't know that we have the highest unemployment in five years because they didn't say a thing about what is going on with the middle class," Obama told workers at a specialty glass factory.

"They spent a lot of time talking about John McCain's biography, which we all honor," the Illinois senator said. "They talked about me a lot, in less than respectful terms. What they didn't talk about is you and what you're seeing in your lives and what you're going through, or what your friends or your neighbors are going through." - The Associated Press

I guess one would try to argue  WELL THATS WHAT SARAH PALIN IS FOR, but then again....

Sarah Palin Daughter Gets Knocked Up At 17

Sarah Palin announced Monday that here 17 year old daughter,Bristol Palin, is 5 months pregnant. Reports say that they plan on keeping the child and encourages Bristol to wed the father.

John McCain on the issue:

"[The Palins] "are being supportive of her and the man she will marry... This is a young woman. She's 17 years old. This is the governor's daughter and it is their issue." -trailblazersblog.DMN

Barrack Obama on the issue:

"Let me be as clear as possible," Obama said. "I think people's families are off-limits, and people's children are especially off-limits. This shouldn't be part of our politics. It has no relevance to Gov. Palin's performance as governor or her potential performance as a vice president."

Obama said reporters should "back off these kinds of stories" and noted that he was born to an 18-year-old mother.

"How a family deals with issues and teenage children, that shouldn't be the topic of our politics, and I hope that anybody who is supporting me understands that's off-limits."-CNN

I believe the candidates are making the right choice by keeping out of this personal matter. There's no need into turning this issue into a celebrity show like Britney Spears little sister,Jamie Lynn Spears. I also think the media will keep their distance from this issue as well seeing that there's more to be had directly from either candidates.

John McCain Picks Former Beauty Queen/Current Milf As Running Mate

Who? Thats the first thing I thought when I heard McCain picked Sarah Palin as his running mate. Then I heard she was an Alaskan governor and remembered that Alaska actually has people living there! But really, who is Sarah Palin?

Senator John McCain astonished the political world on Friday by naming Sarah Palin, a little-known governor of Alaska and self-described “hockey mom” with almost no foreign policy experience, as his running mate on the Republican presidential ticket.
Ms. Palin, 44, a social conservative, former union member and mother of five who has been governor for two years, was on none of the widely discussed McCain campaign short lists for vice president. In selecting her, Mr. McCain reached far outside the Washington Beltway in an election year in which the Democratic presidential candidate, Senator Barack Obama, is running on a platform of change. - NYTimes
